It's official. Code Geass has been licensed by Bandai.

7 days away from 24 and 25 too!! .T________T Not like we didn't see it coming.... Wonder if this will affect subbing. Probably not, but still.


EDIT: From ANN, "Bandai Entertainment announced its North American acquisition of Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion, which is confirmed for an American television broadcast during 2008."

I wanna hear their eng. voices..But omfg the subbers better not be afraid to sub 24-25, along with the future of season 2. TT_________TT

GG and Shinsen will probably still sub it. GG was subbing Coyote Ragtime after it was licensed and Shinsen was still releasing quite a few licensed titles well after the dvds were available.

Well, it would happen at some point. I don't know whever I'm disappointed by this announcement or not but I do have to admit that Bandai are not that bad. They've licensed quite a lot of good anime titles over the years.

I'm kind of dissappointed. D:

[i-own-boysluts.livejournal.com]

;lkajsdf YAY! ♥ They did a lot of good subbings; I'm happy that it didn't end up in the hands of someone like 4kids. ♥

I'm pretty sure it won't affect the subbing much. Maybe Bandai can sympathize with us; we've waited so long, haha.

Yay ! finally licensed .
i was waiting for this for so long, i wanted to buy the DVD so much ;_; .

though i hope fansub don't stop , i wanna see 24&25 subbed ;-;

[ex-nightray.livejournal.com]

I'm not worried about the fansubbers stopping. And if they do, there's always Anon. ♥ Anyway, I'm looking forward to buying the Code Geass DVDs~

Actually, I just read that it might also come to TV in 2008? I can hear some people screaming bloody murder already. XD; I have a feeling Kirby Morrow will voice Suzaku.

KYENAKRFHAWNKH I CAN BUY THE DVDS AND EYE RAPE MY MINOR CHARACTERS :DDDDDD

Shinsen will probably drop Geass, they dropped Darker than Black like a hot potato but I don't mind GG.

[halevy.livejournal.com]

Why, love? D:

[gokumew2.livejournal.com]

Shinsen dropped DTB cuz they've had probs with FUNimation in the past. You can dl from Syndicate though. .^_~

[halevy.livejournal.com]

Oooooh. That's why! I download from Sudo actually. I don't understand Japanese, so I know people tell me that some subbers don't actually "sub right" or something. I remember someone telling Shinsen was like that.

Is that SuwaJun in your icon? If it is... *________* A+++!

I just hope they don't put it on Adult Swim one day, or something. I'm not sure what the possibility of that happening is, but I'd be very sad D:
Someone told me they were doing that with Death Note, but I'm not sure if it's true or not.

[halevy.livejournal.com]

It could go straight to DVD, as I don't think this is really a kid's show but Adult Swim is an option.

Adult Swim was fun... back in the day. I'll still watch re-runs though. :D

Yeah, I heard that, too! People were scared it's going to breed a whole bunch of new /b/tards and Light/L shippers.

[the-firefly.livejournal.com]

Sorry, but according to Anime News Network:

Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion, which is confirmed for an American television broadcast during 2008

So Adult Swim is pretty much a given, :/

[highside.livejournal.com]

I don't mind it going to DVD, cuz lols I'd probly get it anyway. JUST PLEASE DON'T LET VIC SMODJDMOGOGOGO VOICE ANYONE DEAR GOD.
Adult Swim has all kinds of crap, you never know what they're going to put on there. There's far worse stuff than CG I've seen on there before, so I really don't know.
I really hope that they don't put DN on there, though even though I'm not a huge fan of it, but omg...D: It would bring scary things about, I'm sure.

BANDAI did a decent job with Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu so I'm not too worried. I sorta expected FUNi to pick Geass up. I don't know why. *shrugs*

[gatekeepers-21.livejournal.com]

Fudge. My wonderful day of reading Harry Potter has been ruined. I don't know why but I'm starting to hate Otakon... they announced the license of Ouran by Funimation too damn you Otakon!

I was expecting it though, with all the hints of Pizza Hut and Coke Zero in the ASOS Haruhi movies.

I can't believe they want to air it though, I was sure that they'd have to think twice about it with America being to Terrorist paranoid.

Bandai is a good company though, they did an okay job on Haruhi, I hope they'll try hard to promote Geass like they did with Haruhi.

JUST PLEASE DON'T LET VIC SMODJDMOGOGOGO VOICE ANYONE DEAR GOD.

AHAHAHAHA I KNEW YOU'D BRING HIM UP.

LOLLLLLLL. AND NOW VIC MIGNOGNA AS LELOUCH AND JOHNNY YOUNG BOSCH AS EVERYONE ELSE.

[highside.livejournal.com]

UGH I JUST HATE HIM SO MUCH XDD
Omg me and my friend on AIM were just discussing how Vic Modhfghsjf would be Lelouch. It's destiny. PLEASE NO.

I can't believe they want to air it though, I was sure that they'd have to think twice about it with America being to Terrorist paranoid.

If worse comes to worse, they'll edit out any explosions or falling buildings on TV but keep them on the DVDs. I remember the Cowboy Bebop movie was postponed because of 9/11 right?

I'm Canadian but I can't help feeling uncomfortable sometimes when I see explosions in large buildings in anime and all. I don't know... :x It's just me though. Others are desensitized to this sort of stuff.

[gatekeepers-21.livejournal.com]

Ah, I forgot about the editing out, but a lot of the anime is sorta centralized about Terrorists.

I never really thought much about the explosions in large buildings during an anime, but it does make sense to feel a little nervous. It just never occurred to me. I only get a little uneasy when there's massive blood... and lots of corpses.

I will stick to watching it raw I guess, if it comes to it; dubs never do a good job.

Oh god I want to hear Lloyd's english voice. It'll be hilarious, or hilariously painful.
